16.5″ Stubben Juventus Close Contact

Here is a lovely saddle by Stubben, one of our all time favorite brands! The Stubben Juventus was created for youth and petite riders, who were struggling to find supportive shorter flaps and shorter paneled saddles. This saddle meets all of those needs! This lovely saddle offers a seat that measures and fits true to 16.5, while still offering a narrower twist and deeper seat with great padding. Per serial number, this one is a 30cm, which is Stubben’s Medium Wide. However, it fits wider (which is why its for sale) and measures 5.5″. We feel it fits like a wide. Wool flocked, wider channel, and very short panels that measure just 17.5″, making this an option for impossibly short backed horses and ponies. 13″ flap with a  more bold knee and thigh roll to support the riders leg. Has a nice forward flap, but not too forward to be more than appropriate for flat classes or breed shows. The two-toned chestnut brown and London Tan give it a timeless and really attractive look. This saddle has seen hardly any use, far more storage with hardly any use shown on the billets at all. It has tried a teeny bit from storage, but a bit of conditioning and use will being the great Stubben leather back in no time. Talk about an incredible price for a quality saddle!
